Definitions
- Another aspect of the invention is a method for image pattern recognition for detecting an object in an image.
- This method detects a candidate size relevant shape in the image, and performs edge tracing of the candidate size relevant shape to determine whether the candidate satisfies pre-determined shape criteria.
- the edge tracing includes performing a water spreading method to trace a boundary of the candidate size relevant shape. This water spreading may include water filling or water draining to trace the boundary of the object.
